IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a fire or explosion
may result causing property damage, personal injury, or death.
• Before beginning installation, please read and follow these important instructions
for the safety of your home and the people living in it.
• The instructions in this manual are intended for qualified installers and certified
service technicians. Installation and electrical wiring must be completed by
qualified professionals and in accordance with applicable codes and standards.
• DO NOT attempt to install this appliance yourself. Injury could result from
installing the unit due to lack of appropriate electrical and technical background.
• The installer should leave these instructions with the consumer who should retain
for local inspectors’ use and for future reference.
• Due to the size and weight of this range hood, two-person installation is highly
recommended.
• Use care when handling the range hood, chimney cover, baffle filters, and any
parts or accessories, as sharp edges may lead to injury. Use of gloves during
installation is highly recommended.
• The manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage to property or to
persons caused by incorrect installation, improper use of the appliance, or failure
to heed the warnings listed.
• The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes to its products when
considered necessary and useful, without affecting the essential safety and
operating characteristics.
• This appliance is designed for general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to
exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
• The combustion air flow needed for safe operation of fuel-burning equipment
may be affected by this unit’s operation. Follow heating equipment guidelines
and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA), American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and local code and government authorities.

General Safety
• Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through
the duct to prevent back drafting.
• Before servicing or cleaning the unit, fully disconnect the range hood from power
to avoid risk of electric shock and injury.
• Ducted range hoods MUST ALWAYS be vented to the outdoors or in some
instances converted to recirculate the air. All ZLINE range hoods come with a
transition piece with a built-in damper. Some existing installations may already
have an external damper. Please consult an HVAC or installation professional for
advice to comply with local regulations.
• When cutting or drilling into a wall or ceiling, be careful not to damage electrical
wiring or other hidden utilities.
• All electrical wiring must be properly installed, insulated, and grounded.
• Electrical installation must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NPA70-latest edition and/or local codes.
• Old duct work should be cleaned or replaced, if necessary, to avoid the
possibility of a grease fire or other hazard. Check all joints on duct work to
ensure proper connection; all joints should be properly taped/secured.
• When the range hood ventilates air out of the room, the vented air must be
replaced; this is called makeup air. If a makeup air system is needed, but not
used, a hood may not function as expected due to negative air pressure.
• ZLINE does not currently provide makeup air units. Always consult applicable
building codes regarding minimum and maximum air flow rates. Certain states
may require additional items such as makeup air for larger CFM range hoods
(typically over 400 CFM).
• Keep the motor, fans, baffle channels, filters, tunnels, oil containers, and grease-
laden surfaces clean. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate inside or on
the surface of the range hood; clean surfaces frequently.
• Take care when cleaning the range hood in spray form: never direct the spray
onto the electrical wiring, motor, button panel, or light bulbs.
• After installation, use a stainless steel cleaning product or wipe to eliminate any
residues from protective film after removal.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

General Safety
• When cleaning stainless steel, only use a stainless steel cleaner product with
a soft sponge, or use a cloth with a warm soap and water solution. Never use
abrasive powders or liquids.
• To reduce the risk of fire and to disperse air properly, make sure to vent air
outside. DO NOT vent exhaust into spaces between walls, crawl spaces,
ceilings, attics, or garages.
• All ZLINE range hoods are ETL-listed, ensuring all parts were tested for safety
and meet industry standards and regulations.
• You must purchase appropriate flexible ducting and any additional items to vent
the hood in accordance with government codes.
• Please verify with local and state regulations on the proper venting method for
your hood. Many agencies have CFM rating specifications for your hood.
• Always turn the range hood on when cooking at high heat or when cooking
flaming foods. Use high settings on the cooking range only when necessary.
• Never leave range top surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers can
cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or
medium settings.
• Always use appropriate cookware and utensils. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element on your range top.
• To reduce the risk of injury in the event of a range top grease fire, smother flames
with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. Never
pick up a flaming pan — you may be severely burned.
• Keep flammable or combustible material away from flames. If flames do not go
out immediately, evacuate and call the fire department. DO NOT use water,
including wet dishcloths or towels — a violent steam explosion will result.
• Carefully inspect all items for damages upon delivery. Upon acceptance of
items, owner assumes responsibility for its safe arrival.
• Before installing your unit, test the range hood for proper functionality by
plugging it into the wall and testing the fan and lights. Do not install this range
hood if it has missing or broken parts. If the unit arrives damaged, contact ZLINE
Customer Service at 1-614-777-5004 for help.

Wall Hood Measurements
30”-36”36” Height Varies 16”-max 31½”
NOTE: The recommended height to install your hood is 30˝ minimum and 36˝ maximum
above the range top or cook top. For outdoor range hood installation, the unit must be
installed at a minimum of 36˝ and a maximum of 42” above the grill. These distances
allow for maximum venting efficiency. The height of your chimney will vary depending on
model of hood, as well as the height of your kitchen ceiling.

Ducting
DUCTING
NOTES:
• Ducting is not provided with your ZLINE range hood. It’s recommended to use solid
ducting made of galvanized steel or another appropriate rigid metal ducting whenever
possible for the lowest noise and highest flow.
• Use a maximum of 40’ of ductwork. Try to minimize the use of elbows.
• You must establish a minimum of 12” of vertical airflow from the top of the hood before
executing any 90° turn. No more than 3 elbows are allowed; each 90° turn you make
equates to 5’ lost when accounting for the maximum 40’.
• Do not use any reducers on ducting smaller than the appropriate diameter (6” or 8”).
• Any existing or additional dampers should be inspected for proper operation.

Mounting Directions
MOUNTING DIRECTIONS
1. Based on the width of your hood, measure to find the center of the wall. Mark
a line and measure to the left and right to find your two mounting points. Make
sure the mounting points are level and mark the with a pen. It is recommended to
install the hood into wood supports to hold the weight of the hood. Figure 1
2. Drill holes into each mounting point with a suitable sized bit. Tap 2 anchors (A)
into the holes, then fasten 2 mounting screws (C) and washers (D), making sure
to leave the screw heads out roughly 1/4” in order to mount the hood. Figure 2
3. Using at least two people, mount the main body of the hood onto the two screws
and slide into place. Figure 2
4. Mount the top chimney mounting bracket near the ceiling by drilling two holes,
tapping 2 anchors (B) into the wall and then securing with 2 screws (E). Make
sure the chimney bracket is centered and level above the hood. Figure 3

5. Install the transition piece on top of the range hood by securing it with screws (E)
provided. Some hoods require 4 screws, others require 6. Figure 4
6. Secure your ducting connection to the transition piece using foil-backed tape to hold
it into place top of the hood. Try and minimize the use of elbows; more elbows and
longer runs create higher static pressure.
7. The hood comes with a grounded 3-prong plug that must be plugged into a
dedicated 15-amp circuit. The cord is 36” long. Figure 5
Figure 4
Figure 5
NOTE: Run the electrical cord up the chimney,
outside of the ducting, and plug into a dedicated
power outlet on the wall or in the attic. An outlet
behind the chimney, to either the left or right, is ideal.
